What's Changed
- Make the temperature preset as persistent entities / redesign of the configuration menu by @jmcollin78 in #409
Full Changelog: 5.4.2...6.0.0
Changes in version 6.0
Temperature entities for presets
Preset temperatures are now directly accessible in the form of entities linked to VTherm.
Example :
The Boost, Comfort, Eco and Frost Protection entities allow you to directly adjust the temperatures of these presets without having to reconfigure the VTHerm in the configuration screens.
These modifications persist after a restart and are taken into account immediately by VTherm.
Depending on the functions activated, the list of temperatures may be more or less complete:
- If presence management is activated, absence presets are created. They are suffixed with 'abs' for absence,
- If air conditioning management (AC Mode) is activated, air conditioning mode presets are created. They are suffixed with 'clim' for air conditioning. Only the Frost protection preset has no equivalent in air conditioning mode,
- The different absent and air conditioning combinations can be created depending on the configuration of the VTherm
If a VTherm uses the presets of the central configuration, these entities are not created, because the temperatures of the presets are managed by the central configuration.
In the case of a central configuration
If you have configured a central configuration, this also has its own presets which meet the same rules as stated above.
Example of a central configuration with presence management and AC (air conditioning) mode:
In the case of a change of a central configuration temperature, all VTherms that use this preset are immediately updated.
Redesign of the configuration menu
The configuration menu has been completely revised. It dynamically adapts to the user's choices and allows direct access to the settings of the desired function without having to go through the entire configuration tunnel.
To create a new VTherm, you will first need to choose the type of VTherm:
Then, you now access the following configuration menu:
Each part to be configured is directly accessible, without having to go through the entire configuration tunnel as before.
You will note the menu option named Functions which allows you to choose which functions will be implemented for this VTherm:
Depending on your choices, the main menu will adapt to add the necessary options.
Example of menu with all functions checked:
You can see that the 'Opening detection', 'Motion detection', 'Power management' and 'Presence management' options have been added. You can then configure them.
The 'Incomplete configuration' and 'Finalize' menu options
The last menu option is special. It allows you to validate the creation of the VTherm when all the functions have been correctly configured.
If one option is not configured correctly, the last option is:
Its selection does nothing but prevents you from finalizing the creation (resp. modification) of the VTherm.
You must then search in the options which one is missing.
Once all configuration is valid, the last option changes to:
Click on this option to create (resp. modify) the VTherm:
